Hello NY! Im so happy I have only 100lbs to go!

You are a bariatric success at this moment almost 1 yr out, losting 60% of your excess wt...Realistic expectations are my soapbox as many know! A focus on the lifestyle, ingraining that, what wt will come off will be a result of those continued daily consistent lifestyle choices with food, emotions management, and exercise...Your body will be the ultimate controller of final wt loss, we can influence that just so much! Most lose 2/3 of what they will at 6 mo out...statistically, not to have you stop trying at all just my reframe at your already phenomenal success!!Hugs

Jamie,
I haven't looked at it as 60% of my excess weight before... it's pretty cool looking at it that way! I definitely think of my weight loss as a success thus far & even though having about 100lbs more to go can be daunting I am trying not to focus on that number! I just want to keep going & get into that elusive size 12 & then I'll deal with the possibility of a size 10!! As long as I stay on course & not go back to old habits I should be there in no time!! I want a leather jacket & that is finally a realistic goal if I do say so myself!! LOL!!
Thanks!!
